    The team, deliverables, and overall experience have all been fantastic— I couldn't ask for anything more. Imaginary Cloud's team developed our platform, built the dashboard, and provided technical support. They are attentive, skilled, flexible, and willing to put in the effort to produce a top-quality product while hitting deadlines. We have been gaining potential clients worldwide and, without Imaginary Cloud, we couldn't have made any of this progress. They will help you find success.

    Imaginary Cloud handled custom software development for our enterprise platform, building a sophisticated product with a configurable frontend. Their service is superb, and the quality of the deliverables has always been extremely high over these years. They helped us grow our revenue and reputation significantly and also helped us win millions of pounds worth of contracts. I can say their team is intrinsic to our success, and I suggest having them as your informal internal development team.

    The agile skills and ability to adaptto a new condition or requirement were impressive. Imaginary Cloud provided design and software development to create a customized family health platform. Despite the short development time, the team delivered a high-quality product within a short timeframeand. Plus: they also configured and launched the solution. They excelled at communicating with stakeholders, adjusting their workflow if needed. I think they are an excellent team.

    I'm impressed with Imaginary Cloud's very deep expertise, transparency, and very talented people. We wanted to create a new e-commerce website to propel our growth and support the launch of multiple products and language options. Imaginary Cloud was able to design and develop the entire project using their innovative Product Design Process and Agile Development Methodology. In the end, and with the website live, we have achieved the growth goals we set at the beginning of the project.

    Imaginary Cloud has a very good approach to the design of everything related to the Graphical Interface and the UX. Recently, we needed help in developing new proprietary tools of our own and the main goal was to improve our web page designs and investor portal. The high-quality work and engagement they delivered were excellent, and I’m very happy with Imaginary Cloud. They think outside of the box and we'll definitely reach them out for any future projects. Potential customers: go for it!

    Imaginary Cloud is a very serious software agency with a positive attitude and good skill set. We needed front-end development and design services for our e-learning service's platform and, as a result, the end product worked really well. Imaginary Cloud's team was very adaptive and always willing to make changes, which were taking place every week based on feedback from clients and our CEO. Imaginary Cloud helped us grow professionally, and it was very positive.

    This is the best work we’ve gotten from a provider so far, and we’ve worked with many over the years. They have conducted a UI/UX Audit on our platform and identified problems, improvement points, and propose solutions. I’m very happy with Imaginary Cloud’s delivery and the results. Three months after implementing the changes, we have increased our growth rate (by 20%), in-app time for desktop (+15%), and mobile (+50%). They are a fantastic option for someone looking to do a UI/UX Audit.

    The project had wide participation and was concluded with great success. My organization is part of the Ministry of Education, and I am integrated at the School Sports Department. We wanted to develop a School Sports Portal / Website that worked as a basic informationplatform and communication system between its internal stakeholders, students, and their parents. We appreciate how friendly the team was even when we requested changes midway through development. It was an overall success.
